She is lovely. What is her registered name ? (Someone may have seen it in a catalogue or schedule perhaps)
Which area might she be in ?

Best of luck,
Tegs :)

her registered name is flying queen... contacted weatherbys for new owners... passed on a letter to weatherbys to forward to last registered owners and no reply... i dont think shes got her passport anymore as had a message from somebody saying they had her passport but not the horse from the "ahem" dealer in kent....... so just having to try this way now.
i sold her to a girl in suffolk but she could seriously be anywhere now... she was 17 last week xx i had her from a yearling until she was about 8 or 9.. lost contact with the people i sold her to about 5 years ago and have been searching for her for about 3 years now... i just want to know whats happened and if she is dead or alive and happy xx

Unless you know the person and have proof, I'd still contact the passport authority and try NED etc. I'm helping someone here trace their old horse and created a Facebook group. We have had numerous hoaxes, people will tell you the weirdest things! One girl said her friend had the mare, and when asked for proof, sent photos downloaded from Google Images! :eek:

So my advice is don't believe what people tell you. Bear it in mind, but don't let it stop you exploring all avenues.

Good luck!

i contacted weatherbys and they said she isnt registered as dead and the people i sold her to are the last registered owners.. weatherbys let me email them a letter to forward to the people i sold her to.. (they couldnt give me her name for data protection etc :( )
this was about 6 months ago and never heard anything back :( x

no :( no luck yet... i will have a look at putting an ad on horsedates thanks :)
i just cant believe how shes just vanished!! all i want to know is that shes safe .... ive got a feeling she may have had loss of use put on her as i know her owners after me claimed on their insurance for every little thing she had wrong (mainly mud fever!!)and last i heard only had one leg left insurable!... i just hope they didnt just chuck her on the scrap heap... she was a little superstar x

Hi, would it be worth trying to hunt down the people you sold her to? I know Whetherbys have sent on one letter for you, but what about a follow up letter - they might have put off replying to the first, but a second may jog them into replying. Good luck :)
